Spodnji Trg

TIME : 2016/2/19 1:06:49

The main square to the east of Mestni trg was where the poorer folk lived in the Middle Ages; today it is used as a busy thoroughfare with admittedly not much to see – this may change, as town authorities plan a bypass that will take most car traffic off the road.

The 16th-century Granary at the square's northern end is where the town's grain stores, collected as taxes, were once kept.

Over two floors in the granary house you'll find France Mihelič Gallery , which displays the works of the eponymous artist born in nearby Virmaše in 1907. You can arrange a visit through the Loka Museum.
